When knowledge production is fueled by uncertainty and university-endorsed values are based on judgements, we are building a society of fear and shame.
To honestly work toward inclusion, diversity, and belonging, we need the courage to look deep inside to find and heal what keeps us from trusting our hearts.

Within the nature of culture is a choice to self-judge or self-love. To move beyond the destructiveness of human society, we must heal our shame of being human.
